Crown 180-MAX Pack Brochure
180MAx Pack
he Crown® 180MAx Pack is the fi rst tuner-mixeramplifi er and loudspeaker system designed for
commercial use. Applications include restaurants,
T
retail stores, coffee shops and other commercial establishments.
COMMERCIAL AUDIO SERIES
The system includes the Crown 180MAx tuner-mixeramplifi er, four JBL
with built-in 70V transformers, XM antenna and a wireless remote control.
Built into the 180MAx is an XM Radio that receives satellite radio stations with digital sound quality. A front-panel
LCD screen displays XM Radio channel data (channel
number, channel name, artist name, song title) 16 station
presets and signal strength.
The unit also accepts signals from line, telephone, or
microphone (phantom power included). Bass and treble
controls allow the user to tailor the tone quality of the
sound system. The priority ducking feature drops the
volume of the background music when a microphone
is used. A VOX sensitivity setting controls how loud the
voice must be before ducking occurs.
Units can be linked to increase the number of input and
output channels.
The built-in power amplifi er provides 80 watts into 4
ohms, 25V and 70V for use with the JBL Control 1ST
loudspeakers. Current and thermal limiting protect the
amplifi er and loudpeakers from accidental overload.

Crown’s Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty
Crown offers a Three-Year, No-Fault, Fully Transferable Warranty for every new Crown tuner-mixeramplifi er—an unsurpassed industry standard. With this unprecedented No-Fault protection, your new
Crown mixer-amplifi er is warranted to meet or exceed original specifi cations for the fi rst three years of
ownership. During this time, if your mixer-amplifi er fails, or does not perform to original specifi cations, it
will be repaired or replaced at our expense. About the only things not covered by this warranty are those
losses normally covered by insurance and those caused by intentional abuse. And the coverage is transferable, should you sell your tuner-mixer-amplifi er.
See your authorized Crown dealer for full warranty disclosure and details. For customers outside of the
USA, please contact your authorized Crown distributor for warranty information or call 574-294-8200.
